Farmer of Shu Han

Chapter 586: easy

  Chapter 586 Easy

  According to the original historical records, the person who used rockets in large quantities for the first time in Chinese history should be Hao Zhao, the guard of Chencang who Zhuge Laoyao faced during the second Northern Expedition.

  Hao Zhao defended the city with rockets, poured oil on the ladders and set fire to the ladders, and the old demon Zhuge was burnt to death if he didn't guard against it.

  Even the old demon Zhuge couldn't imagine the day when he would be burned by fire. One can imagine the difficulty of attacking and defending a city with fire.

  Because of fire attack, oil is generally used.

  But these days, the source of anointing oil is basically animals.

  On weekdays, meat can only be eaten by rich and noble families, and the people in the head of Guizhou do not have a few drops of oil to eat. How can there be a large amount of ointment for the army to use on a large scale?

  Why did Cao Cao have the loss of Chibi?

  In addition to the right time and place, another important reason is that he did not know that Jiangdong could use fish to boil a large amount of ointment.

  So Pang Hui from the north never imagined that a certain soil turtle could get a large amount of non-edible tung oil from Nanzhong, let alone that there is a highly efficient transportation organization in this world that is abnormal for this era.

  Its name is Dongfeng Express, which can deliver these tung oil to Longshan.

  The most important thing is that the ground beetle has a revolutionary and improved counterweight catapult truck in its hands, coupled with a carefully cultivated artillery team, it can easily throw tung oil into the Guancheng with a radius of more than one mile.

  China has been accustomed to building houses with wood since ancient times, and this habit has been passed down to later generations for more than a thousand years.

   Later generations discovered this, so the incendiary bomb was produced.

  Now Longshan Mountain is full of trees, and Longguan City is naturally full of wooden houses.

  Wait until the sun rises high, the right time, the right place and the right people for the fire attack will be ready.

  Ordinary people in this era have little awareness of fire attack. When they see a fire, they subconsciously just splash water on it. They never thought that preventing oil fire from attacking a city should be buried with sand.

  Even if Pang Hui thought of it later, he had nothing to do, because facing this kind of oil fire that was about to burn the whole city, there was not enough sand and soil in the Guancheng.

  Just to be able to capture Longguan and cut off Zhang Yun's way to help, Feng Yong could even watch the old monster Zhuge attack Jicheng and Shangyu, and he was unwilling to expose his artillery convoy in advance.

   What if the prime minister of the Han Dynasty is unwilling to return it after taking it away? This is the most important trump card for him to capture Longguan within five days.

  As the city wall under his feet became hot, Pang Hui finally felt fear.

  The black clay pots on the head were still flying over. The Han army seemed determined to burn all the people in the city to death. As long as there was oil, the fire in the city would not be extinguished easily.

  Cao Jun under the city wall finally found that he could not control the fire at all. He could not put out the fire with the only water left in the city.

   The chaos began to spread to Cao Jun on the city wall. Feng Yong saw this and ordered, "Prepare to push the antlers in front of the gate to reject the horse."

   Zhang Yi got the order and began to direct the Han army to advance forward with oars and shields, destroying the antlers and repelling horses about a hundred steps away from the city wall.

  According to Pang Hui's thinking, this is the best time to shoot arrows in the city, but now that everyone is panicked and sweating, who cares about stopping the Han army?

   "The fire only burns below, not the city wall. Let me block the Shu captives first!"

  Pang Hui drew out his long sword, cut down a few soldiers who did not obey the command, and shouted sharply.

  The Cao soldiers beside him calmed down for a while, and finally shot a batch of arrow feathers towards the city sparsely.

  Unexpectedly, at this moment, the gate of Guancheng was suddenly opened, and a group of cavalry rushed out, recklessly bumping into the antlers they set up and refused to mount.

The frightened horse neighed and moaned, and didn't listen to commands at all. The knight on his back fell onto the sharp log in front of him unexpectedly, was pierced through his body, blood spilled all over the ground, and then his body twitched a few times and stopped moving. .

   There are still soldiers running out from behind, rushing to the antlers to repel the horse, chopping with weapons, pushing with hands, and hitting with their bodies, just thinking about pushing away the obstacles in front of them and staying away from the fire behind them.

  Looking from the city gate, the city has become a sea of ​​flames. From time to time, people's figures flashed in the flames. Even from such a distance, it seems that the miserable cry for help in the city can be vaguely heard.

   It's like **** on earth.

  Feng Yong was taken aback, thinking that the fire was so big that he didn't expect it.

   "Get out of the way and let them pass."

   Zhao Guang quickly commanded the soldiers to form a passage with scull shields.

With the efforts of both Cao Jun and Han Jun, the obstacles in front of the pass were finally cleared away. Everyone in Cao Jun's face was black and black, only his eyes were red. Frantically rushing into the closed river.

  These people have been driven mad and out of their minds. Anything that stands in their way must be prepared to be crushed.

  When Cao Bing on the city wall saw this scene below the city, he didn't know who yelled first, and fled in all directions.

  The gate of the city has been pushed open by our own people, and we can’t hold it anymore. If we don’t run away, are we waiting to be burned to death?

  Pang Hui's eyes were red, he slashed at the city wall with his sword, pointed at the bottom of the city and shouted, "Feng Yong! Feng Mingwen, you bastard! Are you a son of man? A ghost?"

  As soon as he finished speaking, he inhaled a mouthful of thick oily and greasy smoke. His throat couldn't stand the stimulation, so he bent down and coughed violently.

Feng Yong couldn't hear it, because the northwest wind was blowing on Longshan Mountain in February, he stood on the upwind vent, watched the thick smoke drifting eastward, and couldn't help sighing, "The spring breeze doesn't pass through Yumen Pass! "

  The main cause of a large number of deaths caused by fire is not being directly burned to death.

   It is the toxic smoke generated by the fire, insufficient oxygen supply in a short period of time, and inhalation of high-temperature gas that burns the lungs and causes edema, and suffocation death caused by the above-mentioned reasons.

  So even if there are some places in the city that cannot be burned, the smoke and oxygen-deficient environment produced by the narrow and closed environment of Guancheng are enough to make it impossible for most Cao Jun to stay inside.

   Either climb to the city wall to avoid temporarily, or you can only rush out.

   "Set off fireworks to inform the people in the east."

   Turning his head to look at those Cao soldiers who rushed into the river, after they woke up, they were driven up like sheep, Feng Yong ordered again.

  Thick smoke billowed in the pass city, and Cao Jun on the pass mountain naturally saw it. Although he didn't understand how the city was on fire, Cao Jun's generals knew that the situation was urgent, so they rushed down the mountain to try to respond to the city.

   It's a pity that Feng Yong didn't plan to attack the city at this time at all. The Wudang flying army led by Wang Ping was waiting in full force, and only saw Cao Jun coming down the mountain, and it was a wave of arrows.

   Arrows flew like locusts. Before Cao Jun rushed down the mountain, he left more than a hundred corpses and had to go back up the mountain.

  The catapult finally stopped firing, and the Han army just waited quietly under the city, waiting for the fire in the city to go out by itself.

  The fire burned until the sun was westward, and then the fire began to weaken.

   Cao Bing who rushed out of the city gate was still a bit of a shape at the beginning, but the more they came out from behind, the more inhumane they were.

  In the evening, the people who came out of the city were running, and suddenly they fell to the ground, clutching their chests, and kept curling up their bodies.

  Some people bent over and coughed violently, their mouths and noses were full of black smoke, and they kept spitting out black foam.

  More people are supporting each other, crying, howling...

  Everyone automatically followed the road left by the Han army, walked towards the river numbly, and then was driven aside by the Han army with blank eyes.

The small Guancheng, which is less than 500 meters from the front to the rear, has been thrown into so many oil tanks, and the city is full of wooden houses, so many people have escaped, and there are still living guards inside. It is estimated that there are not many left.

   "The fire is too fierce." Feng Yong propped his chin and muttered, "It seems that I still underestimated the fire..."

  Zhao Guang walked over tremblingly, "Brother...Brother."

"What's up?"

   Feng Yong glanced at him.

   Zhao Guang, who has always been heartless, was caught by Feng Yong at this moment, and he took a step back in fright, swallowing, "When will we enter the city?"

   "What's the hurry? The poisonous gas in the city has not dissipated, and you rush in, do you want to be like them?" Feng Yong pointed to Cao Jun in the passage, "Just ask General Zhang to guard the gate of the city tonight."

  Anyway, in this case, I can’t enter the city. If Cao Jun in the city runs away from the east gate, there is nothing I can do.

  After playing with fire all day, and it was still the kind of fire that burned the city, Feng Yong got up the next day and touched his lower body, um, no bedwetting, it’s okay.

  After eating breakfast, Feng Yongshi hurriedly came to the gate, only to see that the city gate had already been cleaned up.

  Zhao Guang, Zhang Yi, Yang Wanwan had been waiting at the entrance of the city gate, and even Wang Ping was there.

   Several people saw Feng Yong coming, and rushed to meet him.

  Feng Yong subconsciously looked at the main peak of Guanshan Mountain.

   "General, the Cao bandits on the mountain have withdrawn by night."

  Wang Ping knew what Feng Yong was looking at, and explained, "The last general sent people up the mountain to search before dawn. There was no one in the camp, and the people in the dark night camp also saw a large number of Cao thieves fleeing overnight."

   "They are sensible."

  Feng Yong said regretfully.

  If they dare to stay on the mountain for one more day, when they control Guancheng and block the east side, then none of them will try to escape, and then they will know what the despair of Ma Dazui is.

   "How's it going in town?"

  Feng Yong asked again.

   "General, the last general has sent people to investigate, and most of the fire in the city has been extinguished. Now only the Wengcheng on the east side of the city is still guarded by Cao thief."

  Zhang Ni quickly replied.

  Feng Yong nodded, and took a look inside from the city gate, only to see that although the fire inside had been extinguished, there was still a lot of black smoke floating up, and the situation inside could not be seen clearly from the outside.

   "Go to town."

  Feng Yong ordered.

   Line after line of Han troops began to enter the city, and some people climbed to the wall of Longguan, and finally began to cheer.

  I thought it was a fierce battle to win the level, but I didn't expect the victory to come so easily.

Feng Yong walked on the road in the city and looked at all kinds of ashes around him. These ashes were not in piles at all, but connected into a whole piece. It can be seen that in Guancheng before it was burned, there were piles of ashes. full of wood.

  Feng Yong knew that these were the logs prepared by Pang Hui, and they were piled up in almost every corner of this small Guancheng. He noticed it on the nest car the day before yesterday, and it was like a forest farm in the mountains.

  檑wood is the wood used to defend the city. Longshan is full of trees. It is easy to get local materials. At the same time, it can also be used as firewood. Pang Hui must have made a lot of preparations for this.

   Unexpectedly, the wood piled up in Guancheng became the biggest accomplice in the burning of Longguan, leaving the guards in the city without a place to hide from the fire, so they had to rush out of the city to survive.

   Otherwise, according to Feng Yong's plan, burn the city for one day, causing the defenders to lose part of their manpower, and at the same time roast them until they are dehydrated, and let people prevent them from getting water.

   After such a toss, the people in the city are hungry, tired and thirsty after a day and a night, and they should be able to attack the city easily the next day if they attack the city by themselves.

  Unexpectedly, when the fire was put down, the woods all over the city were ignited. The wet and dry ones were full of smoke and fire, and they were smoked and collapsed directly.

  It’s boring, the opponent is too weak!

  Feng Yong smacked his lips, thinking about what it feels like for a "sister, look at" beating a "silly big wooden little friend" in future generations, I finally know!

   "Let the auxiliary soldiers tidy up here. Let's go and have a look at Urn City."

  Wengcheng is actually a small city erected outside the city gate to protect the city gate. Of course, a small number of cities will also set up urn cities behind the city gates.

  From the inner city wall of Longguan, you can directly lead to the city wall of Wengcheng.

  So once the inner city is lost, there is no point in guarding the Wengcheng.

  Feng Yong led his people through the inner city and came to the east gate. There were very few Cao soldiers on the gate.

  He glanced suspiciously at Zhang Ni and the others who were several steps behind him.

Zhao Guang coughed, stepped up, and said in a low voice, "This Longguan was captured by the elder brother. Anyway, last night, the Cao thief almost escaped, so the last step is naturally ordered by you, elder brother." The most suitable."

   "Don't engage in these formalisms."

  Feng Tubie felt relieved for a while, with a smile on his face, but he said hypocritically, "It's everyone's credit for conquering the pass..."

At this moment, the gate of the east city suddenly opened wide, and a general Cao on horseback stopped at the gate with several soldiers, and shouted, "I am Pang Hui of Nan'an, who is Feng Pifu? Dare to fight me?"

General Cao's face was covered in smudges, making it difficult to see what he looked like. His clothes showed signs of being burned. The only thing that could be seen clearly were his red eyes, staring at Feng Feng. Yong's side is like a beast that chooses and devours people.

   "Cough, cough," Feng Tubie coughed twice, did not respond to Pang Hui's words, and asked again, "How many Cao thieves are there in Wengcheng?"

   "Most of them have fled, but this general guards here with his troops."

  Feng Yong nodded, "That's good, let's attack the city."

   "Siege?"

  Zhao Guang was a little confused.

   "Yes, attack the city." Feng Yong pointed to the front, "Isn't there still Cao thief defending the city? If you don't attack the city, what are you waiting for?"

   "Brother, don't you want to persuade you to surrender?"

   Zhao Guang asked hesitantly.

  For this kind of general who is unable to escape and defends the city alone, no matter who he is, he is worthy of respect.

   Unexpectedly, it seemed that the elder brother didn't want to say a word to the other party, and he was about to put the other party to death.

"What is persuading you to surrender?" Feng Yong sneered, "Those who can persuade them to surrender have already run away. Those who do not run away are all fighting to the death. They want to die, how can I stop them? Come, prepare to attack city!"

   If you don’t kill him, are you waiting for him to cause trouble for my Xijun and brother-in-law?

  In Feng Yong's opinion, for this kind of stubborn and vengeful person, killing him is the best choice.

   "Shameless villain!"

  Pang Hui saw that none of the generals of the Han army came out to talk to him, so he directly arranged for crossbowmen to aim at the gate of the city.

"put!"

   "Boom boom boom..."

   Arrows rained down like rain. As soon as a man and a horse rushed out of the city gate, their bodies were full of arrows.

  The war horse hissed and fell to the ground. The armor on Pang Hui's body helped him block most of the damage from the arrow feathers.

I saw him staggering, then stood up again, and continued to charge forward with a knife in his hand, shouting loudly, "Shu captive! You and other clowns are just taking advantage of Wei's unguardedness and succeeding in a sneak attack. Don't be complacent! The millions of troops in the Central Plains, no The day is coming, let's see how you will be wiped out!"

   "General! Wait for XX!"

  The trilogy behind Pang Hui shouted, and Qi Qi rushed out.

   "whoosh whoosh..."

  After the second round of arrow rain, only Pang Hui stood there, staring at the front, unwilling to die.

   "Go and have a look."

   Feng Yong ordered.

  A small school rushed out, raised a knife and cut off Pang Hui's head, held it in his hand, and laughed loudly, "Cao thief, when you cut off Ru Weng's ear the day before yesterday, did you think about today?"
